The Rose Bargain by Sasha Peyton Smith

5.0

What made me abandon my TBR and start this book immediately? They marketed it as “Bridgerton meets The Cruel Prince.” Bestie, say less. I picked it up so fast. 

Did it meet expectations? It EXCEEDED them. It had definite Bridgerton vibes: the time period, the characterizations, the courting period, the royal line. All magnificent. 

And it definitely had TCP vibes. The Fae, the secrets, the plotting, the headstrong FMC. Absolutely delicious. 

But it was also unique. It put a twist on the current fae trend and the plot was ever twisting and turning. I was enthralled by every single word. I ate this book up and I need more immediately. 😍
